“Journalist Calls for David Moyes’ Return After West Ham’s 3-0 Defeat to Chelsea”

Julen Lopetegui’s team conceded just four minutes into the game when Nicolas Jackson drove into the box unchallenged and scored past Alphonse Areola.

Jackson later added a second goal at the London Stadium.

Cole Palmer scored another early in the second half, all but sealing West Ham’s third defeat in five league matches under their new management.

The Hammers parted ways with David Moyes earlier in the summer, but after this loss to Chelsea, some fans are already longing for his return.

On Saturday, 21 September, Allen took to X, writing: “Bring back David Moyes… All is forgiven.”

Hammers fans are realizing that changing managers doesn’t always yield better results. Moyes was previously reappointed after Manuel Pellegrini’s unsuccessful stint at West Ham.

Under Moyes, the club won their first European trophy in decades, defeating Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League final, cementing Moyes’ place in the club’s history.

While it’s easy to look back fondly, it’s important to remember how much criticism Moyes received during his final season.

His defensive style was often questioned, and West Ham struggled, conceding more goals than all but Luton Town, Burnley, and Sheffield United.

However, Lopetegui has brought a more positive, attacking approach to the team, though this has left the defense more vulnerable.

The attacking players still need time to gel and improve.

Fans must move past the idea that Moyes can always be the club’s savior when a new manager doesn’t meet expectations.

While the club is in need of a change after yet another defeat, looking back to Moyes isn’t necessarily the answer.

Something at West Ham does need to change, but they must look forward, not backward.
